He knows how to sweep a girl off her feet, even ones who don't believe in romance. With the Boot Knockers Ranch expanding to Montana, a whole new group of guys bust their butts on the ranch-and in the bedrooms. Foster has been many things in his life, but he's never been happier than as a Boot Knocker. Turns out all his sweet-talkin' and suave ways of his youth aren't wasted on the ladies who visit the ranch looking to experience the sexual thrill of a lifetime. He's charmed many a thong off a lady, though he's never faced a tough cowgirl like Chevy. She tries to ignore his charms, but they don't call him the Candlelight Cowboy for nothin', and there's no way he'll let her walk away less than satisfied. If she can walk at all. Chevy is sick and tired of being romanced by fake men and then ditched when she gets attached. She's breaking the cycle-starting now. Finding the Boot Knocker who can help her seems like fate. He can work his magic all he wants, but she's in control. Knowing he's all talk means she holds the reins tightly. Or she's trying to. Foster's a master of wining, dining and 69ing. And don't even get her started on the moonlit horseback rides or bubble baths. Foster makes every woman feel special, but with Chevy, everything is amplified. He needs to make her understand how amazing she is, or how can he go on? And Chevy thinks she must like punishment if she's falling for the same routine. But this is starting to feel so different...so true. Maybe like the least fake relationship she's ever had.

They say that happiness and fulfillment begin with the self. But how can we maintain that heightened purpose when the outside world keeps challenging us? From hardships and setbacks, to losses, death, and unexplained circumstances, we can lose sight of our internal worth, focus, playfulness, and abundance. That's why I invite you to explore the pages and artwork I have designed as reminders. They are filled with stories, tools, methods, and situations aimed at helping you on your own journey. Some of the topics are humorous and entertaining. Some are sexy and silly. And most are deep, heartfelt, and mind-awakening. Every one, in some form... is inspiring. Not all chapters may be for you now or at any time along your path. I wrote them at a different point along mine. But I'd like to think that my book is a natural rescue remedy in some way or another; that's why I wrote it. I'm not a doctor, certified medical professional, or licensed practitioner. I only know what I know, and am only as good and successful as my own collective experiences. However, I feel that my contribution to my audience has always been to empower. My book is a compilation of good-feeling energy, so hopefully, you'll connect with something inside that gives you peace with your past, freedom for what's ahead, and comfort in this present moment.

Life. The great opportunity and gift to experience God's creation and all that it has to offer - the joy, love, suffering and pain. This collection of short stories and poems is representative of many of my life's experiences, and I continue to be optimistic and hopeful that there are many more to come. We all share the universal experience of the biological clock moving forward, carrying us along with or without our consent, so, we should make the very best of the journey while we can.The poems, sometimes raw and unvarnished, are both fictional and "real," meaning that the concept or theme of the poem is based on true events in my life. The writing, both for the love and pain they harness during each written exposition, was an outlet for my emotional psyche - a way to document the extreme beauty of my relationships with other people and conversely, a volcanic channel for the emotional lava that spewed forth when the pain was to great to keep inside.There were times when I sat down at the keyboard and began to write and had no idea what I had written until "it" was over, and then I began to reread what had sprung forth from the keyboard. The writing of the words, the therapeutic exorcism of writing down my pain, always did its job of walking me off the ledge - a ledge I am very familiar with.The short stories, in sharp contrast to the poems, are about relationships, both to nature and people. Most of them are fictional, but they all have their roots in real life. Through the characters and the setting, a picture and theme will emerge that is charged with emotion, and in many ways, reflective of the emotions that we all have from time to time but really don't know what they are and how they should be expressed. Life has taught me that the emotional landscape of our life is messy and shallow where you think it should be deep and deep where you think it is shallow. It's like motoring a boat on a lake with a mirror smooth surface. As the sky is reflected on the water's polished surface, you can't see below and have no idea if the water is deep or if it's "skinny," so, you motor slowly lest you run aground.
Some 200 years in our future, the Earth is dying. Climate change has taken its toll. The rains do not fall. Wars are waged over the most precious commodity, clean water. The Life Trust Guild, a group with ties dating back for hundreds of years, have been planning a solution. They have infiltrated all levels of government and businesses. Their scientists have searched the cosmos for another planet, one where they could send people from Earth, and they found one. Now, all they had to do is steal a couple of spaceships from NASA, load them with supplies and all the knowledge from Earth they can lay their hands on, toss in a few hundred civilians, shake well and voila, instant Earth. Unfortunately, things don't always go how they are planned. The dynamics of the people on board cause some serious disturbances in the tranquility of the new settlements on Terra. The prejudices from those who had money against those that didn't and against the Tubers, genetically modified humans, begin to fester. The colonists were paired up before they left, as expanding the population was crucial. Follow along as these settlers try to survive all that their new world throws at them while trying to avoid a major internal rift between the factions.

What difference would it make to our theology if we knew that Jesus presently rules from every throne that He is ever going to sit upon? All of the prophecies about His Kingdom are in effect already. So many think "Endtime Prophecy" is not important today, and that there are more important things to focus upon now, since those things have not even happened yet. They're about the future. But what if the Kingdom prophecies of Christ's dominion were already fulfilled millennia ago? With all of the New Testament focus upon leading of the Spirit, overcoming sin, Satan, the world, and even our own flesh, is the last book of the Bible, the Book of Revelation, really about Chinese armies, nuclear wars, Cobra helicopters and computer chips? Revelation is a "signifying" book of visionary symbols only understood when comparing it with the rest of the Bible. Read how John was told that its events were at hand 2,000 years ago. Learn how Revelation's storyline parallels the Exodus of Israel in astounding ways to understand what the mark of the Beast really is. See how Christ currently sits upon the Throne of David. Bible Prophecy was the launching pad of inspiration for faith from which the early Church went forth into the world in the first century. That makes eschatology a very important subject for the believer today, because it shows us more about our true positions as believers in the world better than any other prophetic perspective can.
